Calling All Mediators and Mediation Advocates Around the World – Join Our Editorial Team!

The Editorial Team at the Kluwer Mediation Blog is delighted to announce a global call for expressions of interest to join us as Regional Editors.

For over a decade, the Kluwer Mediation Blog has provided a trusted, independent, and vibrant platform for exploring mediation theory and practice, sharing insights across jurisdictions, and shaping the global dialogue on dispute resolution. With mediation increasingly recognised as an essential part of the dispute resolution ecosystem, the time has come to expand our editorial community and deepen our regional reach.

We’re looking for Regional Editors from all corners of the world – Africa, Asia-Pacific, the Americas, Europe, and the Middle East – who are passionate about mediation and eager to contribute to its development, both locally and globally.

What’s Involved?

As a Regional Editor, you will:

• Identify and promote regional perspectives on mediation, including new developments, challenges, opportunities, and cultural dynamics.
• Work closely with the Editorial Team to develop themes or topics of regional and global relevance.
• Source regular contributors and guest authors from your jurisdiction or region.
• Help grow the visibility and impact of the blog by engaging with local mediation communities and networks.

We’re not looking for perfection—we’re looking for passion, curiosity, and commitment to strengthening mediation as a tool for resolving conflict and building consensus. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner, an academic, a policy advocate, or a rising voice in your region, we would love to hear from you.

Why Join the Editorial Team?

Becoming a Regional Editor is an opportunity to:

• Raise your professional profile as a thought leader in mediation.
• Be part of a global network of dedicated mediators and dispute resolution professionals.
• Shape the conversation on current and emerging trends in mediation worldwide.
• Gain editorial experience and play a leading role in curating mediation content for a widely-read and respected international platform.
• Contribute to building bridges between regions and perspectives, helping the global community learn from local innovation and experience.

How to Express Your Interest

If you are interested in joining us as a Regional Editor, please send us:

• A brief expression of interest (maximum 500 words)
• Your CV or short biography
• Any ideas you may already have for regional content, themes, or contributors

Submissions should be sent to: [email protected] by Friday 22 August 2025.

We are excited to grow our editorial team and deepen the blog’s reach into the many communities, cultures, and systems where mediation plays a role – and where it has the potential to do so much more.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Warm regards,
The Editorial Team
